RIU Palace Pacifico

Great Resort, Great Services, management is very friendly and easy to work with if you need something... The first thing I noticed when I walked in, was the most beautiful staff of all resorts I've been to (about 20). and all are very friendly. Puerto Vallarta does have rules regarding no noise after 11, so partying outside is hard to do afterwords and there is no club on the inside... However, there is a sports Bar that's open 24/7 with pool tables, air hockey, music, and drinks!!! room service is great. twice a day. pool is small but great service... awesome spa... food, for my taste, was ok. not bad but nothing special. beach has no umbrellas like most usually do but plenty of palm trees.. the best part was probably the rooms (that you don't spend all that time in). all rooms have clear or partial ocean view. Spacious. the luxury or bridal suits are amazing. on the edge of resort (ocean side) with huge balcony with Jacuzzi. also a walk in closet and Huge King size bed with a jacuzzi inside as well. also a small living room (studio style). Over all good relaxing experience.. HAVE FUN!!!

Vallarta adventures can take you on a boat (30 minute speed boat for up to 10people or 1 hour cruiser for up to 60 people) to Las Calletas beach. very nice beach, lots of water activities, very pretty scenery, and nice dining... they do a lot of weddings there at night because of how pretty it is... Don't try to get there in a car, it's not possible.

The hotel was beautiful and luxurious. The buffet restaurant needs to have more variety in the type of foods that they serve, the majority of the food was Mexican and very little of anything else. The Steakhouse Restaurant food was way, way below average....went to the buffet restaurant after dining at this restaurant due to the quality of the food served in the Steakhouse Restaurant. The Krystal Restaurant's food was superb, exactly what a fine dining experience should be.
